If you’re typically glued to MTV’s Faking It on Tuesday nights, we bet you’re excited about all the singing, dancing and all-around drama that’s in store for season two. You might also be a huge fan (like we are!) of actress Bailey DeYoung. What we love the most? How straight up she is in her approach to fitness.

“I refuse to do anything in the name of vanity that I don’t enjoy,” she says. “I like to do kind things for my body and be healthy but if I dread any particular exercise I don’t do it.”

When she’s not working on set, DeYoung loves hiking with husband, musician Tyler DeYoung. Also on rotation: hot yoga, running outside, swimming, and dance classes —which, in the actress’ opinion, is the best. She’s also a huge fan of this go-to move that engages big muscles like the legs, booty, back, and arms: the wheel pose.

Lay down on your back with knees bent. Place your hands behind your head, with your palms slightly above your ears. There should be a gap between your head and palms, with fingers pointed towards your feet. Push through your legs as you lift your lower body off the ground. As you’re raising up, push through your arms to get your upper body in the air. Push your body up until you’ve acquired a wheel position. Hold for a few seconds. Slowly release and repeat.

If you’re a beginner, try first starting off with the bridge pose instead: Lie on your back with knees bent and arms extended out beside you, with palms flat. Press feet and arms into the floor, as you exhale and lift your hips up towards the ceiling. Interlock your fingers and press hands into the mat as you lift higher. Tuck your chin into your chest and move your butt towards your knees. Release and repeat.
